Multi agent AI helps for three reasons and costs near 15x the tokens. A test for each, a context calculation, and the smallest two-agent setup worth building.
The five types of AI agent from the textbook that defined them, each as ten lines of Python you can run, plus which type an LLM tool-calling loop actually is.
How to build an AI agent in one Python file: three tools, a loop with a turn cap and a token cap, a run log, and a check that grades the run from data.
One app spec held against the AI app maker tools on page one, with each free tier's documented limits, the walls you hit, and the money outside the maker.
What an autonomous AI agent can do without a human, mapped to the permission modes, sandboxes and hard caps that Claude Code, Codex and Copilot document.
A one-feature spec, a six-row rubric, and a mode matrix for judging any AI coding assistant yourself, plus today's free tiers and prices from vendor pages.
What an MCP server is, a minimal Python server you can run, the Claude Code command to register it, and the failure modes that make a first server go silent.
Test AI-generated code across contracts, boundaries, permissions, migrations, retries, concurrency, and rollback with a reusable failure matrix.
Use an AI coding workflow that turns issue contracts, tests, diffs, review findings, and release checks into evidence instead of confident summaries.
Use an AGENTS.md file to give coding agents scoped repository rules, nested overrides, exact verification commands, and deployment anti-drift boundaries.
Follow a Claude Code tutorial that inspects, plans, edits, and verifies one small repository change with exact checkpoints and test evidence.
Compare Codex vs Claude Code with the same five repository tasks, evidence checklist, permission boundaries, and a decision method you can reproduce.
The real vibe coding security risks a shipping dev keeps hitting, from hardcoded secrets to missing auth checks, plus the short guardrail list that stops them.
How to deploy a web app you built with AI, told by a dev who ships them. Pick a managed host, connect the repo, set env vars, and dodge the prod-only bugs.
AI code review is a useful first pass, not a merge decision. See what it catches, where context fails, a reproducible test matrix, and a safer review loop.
Windsurf vs Cursor in 2026 from a builder who ships with Cursor daily. Real checked pricing, the Windsurf ownership shakeup, and who each tool suits.
How to prompt AI for coding, from a dev who ships real apps with it. Context first, one narrow task, hard constraints, and the failing-case loop guides skip.
